Chapter 533: Three Weeks
After saying those words to Elen, Elena kissed her gently while hugging the girl’s thin waist.
The two young blondes were completely sweaty, their bodies hot from the high-intensity exercise they were doing earlier. At the same time, there was a particular blush on their faces, which mixed with certain red marks, some of them on their necks.
And as they felt each other’s heat, they both kissed, as the two rolled over on that big bed they were lying on, running their messy hair back and forth.
“Mmmm~”
“Looks like you were truly looking forward to it, huh?” Elena teased Elen shortly after separating her lips from that young woman’s.
Hearing this, Elen looked from side to side and then once again focused on the figure of her friend, who was leaning over her this time, with the breasts at the height of her neck. That was a privileged view, in which this young Nash woman could perfectly see Elena’s rosy nipples, which at this point were fully erect.
But Elen was not distracted by seeing this beautiful part of her friend’s body, as she had already satisfied her most ardent desires. “Lately, it’s been pretty stressful…” She said as one of her hands hugged Elena’s waist.
“Hmm, I realized that. You were looking like a beast in heat, haha.” Elena teased her, remembering the fire that seemed to have no end within her friend’s body. “You should try dating different people with me, Elen. I think you should stop caring about being allied with Minos and not wanting to sleep with him…”
“You’re truly a bad influence…” Elen commented, shaking her head in disappointment.
This woman had spent a few months in the Dry City, part of that period with Minos’ presence there, after his return from that last trip. But even if they had the opportunity to sleep together, nothing ever happened between them.
Not because young Stuart didn’t want to, but because Elen had refused to accept Elena’s suggestions regarding the three of them having sex…
“How many alliances are broken because of sex? Feelings? You know this very. After all, cases like this happen every day in our world.” Elen said in a low voice as she pushed her friend’s seductive body away and sat down on that bed.
“I don’t want to ruin my business with Minos!”
“Tsk! Nothing bad would happen if you weren’t so boring.” Elena commented in disagreement. “At most, you could have fun with us a few times and then go back to your life after that.”
“Who says there need to be feelings involved? Minos isn’t the pathetic kind of man who keeps looking for that kind of relationship just because he’s slept with a woman.”
“He doesn’t look for unnecessary complications. So, I wanted you to try this with us.”
Elena then smiled and finished her comment. “It will be fun, Elen!”
But Elen just glanced thoughtfully at her friend before finally dropping the subject. “Forget about it for now. It doesn’t matter what you say, I won’t be able to go to the Black Plain for a long time, and it’s unlikely that Minos will come to Stone Island…”
“One way or another, nothing will happen in the near future.”
“Well, that’s true… The Black Plain is at a turning point right now, and the war with the Allen family is getting more intense every day.” Elena commented after sighing deeply.
The Black Plain had incited some plans that would not allow Minos and his forces to back down. At the same time, the danger posed by the Allen family faction was more and more apparent.
Recently, battles took place on Stone Island almost every day, while the trade war was terribly affecting both sides.
Moreover, with the deaths of Spiritual Kings becoming more and more common, the local powers involved in this couldn’t lose their focus with minor things, like the previous matter of these two women.
Besides, for one of the main culprits in all of this, Elen had to be very careful, or her existence would be at risk!
The situation was at such an advanced stage that this woman had barely left her residence and was even receiving the protection of two cultivators at level 55!
“By the way, how is Minos doing? He should already be at level 49, right?”
Elena nodded in acknowledgment and said. “Yes. In less than six months, he should reach level 50.”
“Oh? That’s truly good to hear.” Elen commented while she had a smile on her face. ‘With his advancing speed, it shouldn’t be long before he can intervene on Stone Island and end the war!’
As Elen thought about the only option, she saw this war ending ‘peacefully,’ at the same time as she heard her friend’s question. “And how are the recent Allen family movements?”
“Recently, some elders of House Allen traveled to the Cromwell Kingdom and Kingdom of the Waves. Other than that, I heard that they tried to get help from the Spiritual Church but failed miserably…”
Elen then frowned in a worried expression and said. “I think these trips are related to this failure. I’m afraid they are preparing a big move!”
“What? Do you think they will try a more active approach?”
“Perhaps… Recently, the losses of the enemy group have been greater than those of our allies. And considering the Allen family’s past, they won’t accept this without making a big move. At the very least, they will do something a little more decisive in the near future.”
Elen then left that bed and headed towards the bathroom. “Let’s see what happens. My group is also preparing to counterattack the moment something bigger happens!”
“Excellent. Then we’ll send a letter informing Minos that something might happen soon on Stone Island…”
They then continued to talk about this matter while they went to take a long hot bath. These young women had just been reunited since Elena’s return to Stone Island, so they both had a lot to talk about.
Before that, Elena had stayed on her family’s property, where she had to go through a series of procedures to advance her position within such power.
To do this, she had had to talk to several elders, undergo a strength assessment, and some other security measures. Such things would not be necessary for subordinates, as they did not have the same possibilities as nobles.
In fact, in general, 6th stage subordinates, besides having special access to information and resources, the only thing they really had similar to the nobles was the possibility of commanding territories, branches, etc.
That’s because, typically, these powers had larger territories than they could handle using only high-level nobles. Therefore, subordinates also fulfilled this task, as in the case of Mirya in the City of Waters.
But those 6th stage subordinates would always have their superiors, those nobles they would talk to if they had any problems to report, requests, etc.
These subordinates couldn’t bring this matter to any nobles, as even these individuals had their subdivisions. After all, some people had a preference for doing only certain types of work.
So, subordinates would talk to their superiors, and these individuals would do what was necessary with this information and problems.
As such, Elena had spent a few days taking command of some Spiritual Kings, smiths, or warriors, people who were now under her leadership.
Finally, the procedure for a noble to receive an increase in status within a noble family was more complex, as it involved a higher level of political power. But it was worth it, and now Elena had several plans of what to do with these people, to help her family improve even more!
…
While various problems developed in different parts of the northern part of the Central Continent, in the blink of an eye, three weeks passed!
Wars were exploding in more than one state as several families worked intensely to find ways to protect themselves and increase their powers in these tumultuous times.
New youngsters began to cultivate every day, while many experienced cultivators died across the region.
But while this region was experiencing an unusual time compared to the recent past, in the Black Plain, things had developed smoothly in those weeks.
The tension that had existed between the soldiers regarding the threat from the Gill family still existed, but things had calmed down these past few days.
But while everyone in the Dry City was doing well, getting stronger every day, three Spiritual Kings approached that place, coming from the north…
